Jeff Daniels Declares “Dumb & Dumber” Sequel is a Go

The “State of Play” actor was in the house to promote the new season of his hit show “The Newsroom,” though conversation quickly turned to a much different project.

Fallon asked whether or not Jeff would re-team with Jim Carrey for a sequel to their 1994 flick “Dumb and Dumber,” and Daniels confirmed that production is scheduled to commence in September with the Farrelly Brothers.

He added, “We’re middle-aged. We’re not pretending we aren’t. And we’re still that stupid,” much to the crowd’s delight.
